FINALLY! It's time for Your Next Stamp's first blog hop!

You should be arriving here from Maureen's blog, if you aren't, make sure you start at Karen's blog! There will be lots of candy given away during this hop so take the time to comment on EVERY BLOG! Anyway, I am so excited for today because I get to show you three of the new releases from Your Next Stamp! The artists have really outdone themselves with these new images and I think you will agree once you see them!

First up: Skating Fun! Fhiona

Oh my word! Isn't she adorable??? I fell in love with this image as soon as I saw it! To start off my card I stamped Fhiona and colored her in with my Copics. I paired her up with some fabulous paper and ribbon to create a very non-traditional Christmas card! I think it's pretty cute myself! :) I also used some fun baubles to embellish up my card!

Next on the list: Snowman

Ack! This little guy is definitely one of the cutest snowman stamps I have ever seen! He's the perfect size AND he's cheap! :) For this card I decided to use Mercy's Tuesday Sketch as my layout. I paired up my image with some old SU! paper and colored my snowman in with more of my Copic markers! I then added some ribbon and snowflakes! After punching out and attaching my snowflakes I also added some fun pearls to the centers!

Last but not least: Scarecrow

Isn't he so fun? This little guy is PERFECT for Thanksgiving! Again I colored him in with my Copic markers and paired him up with some fabulous designer paper. I put the card together and then embellished it with some ribbon, pearls, and a button/flower combination! This is also a sketch from the new blog called Crazy 4 Challenges!

These are all fabulous Stephanie! It's so funny, I hoped onto your blog and read the banner and thought "wow, this girl should change her blog name, it's the same as Stephanie Hargis." Yeah, that's how tired I am. ;)

I just happened to come across your next stamp while doing a random google search and I was SO excited to see all of the UBER cute stamps!!! They are SO cute that I was doing my little happy dance and MUST own at least one of each set! I love the new Fiona sets that were just released!!! Thanks for the chance to win some of these MEGA cute stamps!!!!!!

I have 3 words for you Steph...stunning, stunning, stunning! I really love your style of cardmaking, and these three are so beautiful. The embellies you've added to them all are PERFECT! Gorgeous!!! Hugs, Simonne x

I just love your color patterns! They are delightful. The aqua and brown schemes are just my favorite colors for everything! I love your Fhiona but I really love your Snowman! Super Fun Cards! I didn't find a follow you link on your page but I still added you to my list of favorite blogs, I hope you don;t mind.
